strength for a more vigorous move.

An Able Grafton.

Hon. J. r. Burton, of Abilene the
orator of the West, de-
livered mastery address yesterday
at the court room. He was making
the closing argument to the jury IN
the ChilsOn murder trial, in which
case he was employed by the county.
Although some considerable feeling
was manifested on both sides through
the trial, which has lasted over TWO
weeks, those who heard him. we thlnk
do all express the opinion that his
efforts were a grand display of orator
Gical and logical application and vlgor;
The court room was overcroWded
with anxious listeners, drawn mther,
perhaps, on account of his fame as a
speaker las well as the interest when
centered in the trial. Mr.. Burton
differs somewhat with the old masters
in the definition of his art. Demos
themes and Tully define it as being
action. Aristotle and also McCauley
say it is science to persuade. Soc
rates and Plato call it an art to fiattel
and discern. While Mr.. Burton says
it is simply telling the truth.
Mr.. Burton is fine orator, and he
well deserves the reputation acquired
as a speaker before the courts or IL
the political field.--SGlinG Journal.

What True Merit Will Do.

The unprecedented sale of Bosc'.ee's
German Syrup within few years has
astonished the world. 1t is without
doubt, the safest and best remedy ever
discovered for the speedy and effectual
cure of Coughs, Colds and the severest
Lung troubles. 1t acts on an entirely
different principle from the usual pre-
scriptions given by physicians, as it
does not dry up Cough and leave the
disease still in the system, but on the
contrary removes the cause OF the
trouble, heals the parts affected and
leaves them purely healthy condition.
A bottle kept in the house for use when
the diseases make their appearance,
will save DOCTORS bills and long spell
of serious illness. A trial will convince
you of these facts. 1t is positively sold
by all druggists and general dealers in
theland. Price, IS cts, large bottles,

For the Relief of Others.

EAST ST.. LOUIS, September 18th.
PHOSPHATE LEMON RYE Co.,
st. Louis, Mo-:
GENTLEMEN:-Why have you not
told me beforel This exclamation came
from lady neighbor of mine who has
been ailing for three years with what
the physicians claim to be malarial
fever, which prevails here every sum-
mer. She had no appetite, was de-
spondent and depressed in spirit and
the least excitement would be a strain
on her whole nervous system and often
she remarked of being tired of life.
One day while in st. Louis one of your
pamphlets fell into my hands and 1
bought one large bottle of your Phos
phatic Lemon Rye, gave it to her ana
it is the only thing she has been bene-
fitted by of all she ever tried. She is
taking it regular and improves every
day. You may use this in print for
the benefit of Others.
Yours truly

The farmers of Canada, in common
with farmers of the United States,
are in favor of unrestricted trade be-
tween the two countries and, in fact
of unrestricted trade with the world at
large. Tariffs cut on the farmers
opportunities and, while limiting his
markets so that his own competition
naturally depresses the price received
for his produce, swells the value OF
everything he buys.
